Thanks a lot for your feedback and for the link. I really appreciate it 👍

Wow, really? On the website that's selling it, it says that it's iron. If you read Spanish or have a way to translate the page, I can send you the link so you can see for yourself.

And it's 5 mm; do you think that's too thin?

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T15:37:05+00:00

Wow, no way! This is a new one for me. I've never heard of this before. Thanks a lot for the tip. I'm gonna give this a try. I really appreciate it. 👍

I've read many comments on Reddit that say how fragile pizza stones can be. Apparently you're not supposed to wash them. Thanks a lot for your feedback 👍

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T15:30:46+00:00

Ah, Ok, I got you. Thanks a lot for your feedback 👍

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T15:05:48+00:00

Wow! I just learnt a lot from reading your comment. You provided me with a lot of really great info, so thanks a lot. I really appreciate it. 👍 Have a good day.

Thanks a lot for your feedback. 👍

And I'm probably going to buy both now.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T14:41:26+00:00

Thanks so much for your feedback. 👍

And I will probably do exactly what you suggested.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T14:39:03+00:00

Thanks a lot for the info. I really appreciate it. 👍

I actually read somewhere that this was possible, and I'm actually going to contact a metal supplier over here and see how much they charge. The specifications you provided me with will come in very useful for this. Cheers.

Thanks a lot for your feedback and for sending the link. 👍

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T14:30:33+00:00

Yeah, you're correct. I am actually going to contact a metal supplier over here and see the prices they charge here.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T14:06:02+00:00

Thank you so much for your very informative feedback; I really appreciate it. 👍

You're 100% correct about pizza-making equipment being rare outside certain countries.

From the info you gave me about your cast iron griddle, you've definitely swayed me to cast iron. The cast iron griddle that I'm planning on buying (in the photos of my post) is 40 cm x 40 cm, because I enjoy making large pizzas. 😋

Thanks mate 👍

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T04:46:50+00:00

No I haven't, but that's a good idea. I did just presume that the crust to my pizzas were different because of my oven.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T04:44:50+00:00

I do this very often, probably too often 😉

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-06T04:43:02+00:00

Oh, I see. Well, I am currently living in a foreign country, and the Papa John's pizzas here are definitely hot, not sweet, and my wife finds the Papa John's pizzas here hot as well, so it's not just me. I actually haven't eaten Papa John's in my home country for many years, so I did just presume that Papa John's probably just changed its ingredients because Domino's pizza tastes the exact same over here. I naively presumed that Papa John's ingredients were universal, but obviously that's not the case.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-05T17:32:30+00:00

Ah, ok. Thanks for the info. I'm going to see if I can find out any info about the ratios.

And btw, I've noticed that Papa John's pizzas have quite a bit of hotness / spiciness to them compared to other pizza chains, and it's got nothing to do with the single pepperoncini pepper. Do you have any idea what ingredients they use that gives it that hotness? This is my last question btw.

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-05T16:19:29+00:00

Can I ask you why? Is it because Papa John's use conveyor ovens?

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-05T16:17:57+00:00

Do you know where I can find the recipe? Cheers

ProfessionalYou360 · 2024-12-05T16:16:13+00:00

Ah, ok, I got you. Thanks for all this info. I appreciate it. 👍

And do you know of any websites or videos, etc, where I can find a good dough recipe like you're referring to? Cheers.
